IMHO the dictionary that comes along with the codespell utility should 
already be good enough to cover most of these typos, so I'm inclined to 
rather say "no" to the second patch. Instead, maybe you could introduce a 
k-u-t specific spelling.txt to get rid of the warning message, with some few 
entries like:

kmv||kvm
RDSMR||RDMSR
WRSMR||WRMSR

?

(the latter two entries were fixed by commit 784dd85d25d484)

WDYT?
